I can't tell you the exact manufacturing dates (from 19XX to 19XX) but my dad gave me a Model 5 when I was 8 years old (that would have been in 1964).

Back then, millions of young kids had rifles... yet there were never any incidents with school shootings or mass killings. Kids didn't learn how to do that until the video game industry taught them how.

I've been looking for a Savage Model 5 for years, to replace the one I had when I was a kid, and have yet to see one. They were just simple, utilitarian .22 rifles, and not expensive or high-end... but there doesn't seem to be very many out there.

I posted the above some time ago. Since then, I've found (and bought) two Savage Model 5's, and have done quite a bit more research.

The first Model 5 appeared in 1936. Early models had a simple steel plate trigger guard. In the late 1930's, the Model 3, 4 and 5 were made with cast metal, painted trigger guards.

I don't think any rifles were made during the war years, as Savage was quite busy making heavy machine guns for Uncle Sam. In either case, they didn't publish any catalogs.

After WWII, rifle manufacturing resumed. The Model 5 last appeared in the 1960 catalog.
